The Instructor Zero Marketing Engine Is Redlining

Funker Tactical has the machine running at 18,000 rpm as always:

“Tap, rack, bang… but why?”  ROFL I died.  Even the music in the background of these videos is priceless.

There has been a lot of talk about Instructor Zero being a fraud lately.  I don’t have a dog in the fight, but I’ve been told by a couple sources, and a couple commenters said that some things are “coming down the pipeline” so if that’s true something tells me my popcorn consumption might increase regardless what the news is. Could just be haters hating though, I really don’t know.

Instructor-ZeroPeople have posted this link in the past, which apparently outlines his past experience.  You can take a look if you care.  The bullet points mean absolutely nothing to me, but they sure sound fancy.

Until further news, keep your hellbows in check, your drop leg holsters dropped, and your eyes on the prize guys.

Thoughts?

    Only way to listen to this is with closed captioning turned on. Hilarious!

  3. “The Empire (Funker Tactical) Strikes back”. Keeping the haters saying he might not be former Tier-Ninja operator at bay.

  4. I hope one day Instructor Zero will do audio books, that would be so awesome.

  5. What, no Hell’s Bells in the van? No way to remind himself of his former life? Lol that intro though… Sensei Zero for sure.

    Funker was a lot more watchable when it was hosted by combat medic Ryan, and was Funker530. Not just this Instructor Zero nonsense. I still enjoy their videos, but really guys, it’s like an ad for Zero, while we all laugh, and they get all defensive.

  7. Careful! They might threaten you with an international lawsuit!

      LOL true true. When I saw that I almost spit my iced tea all over the screen. Lame as hell.

  8. Instructor Zero and Funker tactical are frauds.

    Here is the thing. Zeros skills are unquestionable. I don’t think anyone will argue that he has more skills with firearms than 99% of the instructors out there. The questions is: IS ZERO AN ACTUAL INSTRUCTOR? The reason why this is questionable? 1. He uses an assumed name. I’ve trained with Yeager, Clint Smith, and Massad Ayoob. There are plenty of great instructors like Costa, Haley, Farnam and vickers. All go by their real names and have real, verifiable backgrounds. Zero does not. 2. A quick visit to his site shows no contact info other than an email. No phone number, no fax, no secretary etc. The “classes” have dates but no location and again no way to verify they actually happen. 3. No one seems to have ever trained with zero. I mean, I’ve trained with people and have no problem telling others they were great classes. Why is it impossible to find just one real person who has taken a class? 4. Did he deny in this video what Yeager was saying? No. He took it in a different direction and did not deny the allegations. Again, there is no denying Zeros skills as a shooter. But I don’t think he is an actual instructor.

    I asked these questions on their facebook, was attacked by funker tactical personally and banned.
